Hello, As Bruno says, there is no need for all these Directives or things you want to put into scripts. Many years ago, I made Bacula so it would work perfectly well with automounted devices, because I was traveling, and I wanted to be able to insert any USB key and have Bacula write to it. If I remember right the only trick is to make sure you use Removable = yes in the Device declaration. If you then manually create a Volume (or with the SD) on each device you want to use, when it is mounted, and a Job runs, Bacula will search the directory you have specified for the ArchiveDevice and if there is any valid Volume, it will attempt to append to it. Of course, during a restore, you need to plugin the right USB stick or whatever you are using.
If someone can really figure out something that Bacula cannot do in conjunction with the OS and sends in a patch with appropriate documentation, we will consider using it (better yet check with us first). If you cannot figure out how to do it yourself, please use the Bacula users list. We attempt to limit our responses to development issues and not to support.
